SUMMARY:The Yemen War in Numbers: Saudi Escalation and U.S. Complicity
DESCRIPTION:President Biden came into office pledging to end U.S. support f
 or the Saudi-led war on Yemen\, yet it has become clear that he has not. N
 ow\, in the context of rising oil prices\, Biden is considering whether to
  give in to Saudi and Emirati demands that he escalate assistance for thei
 r war in exchange for increasing fossil fuel production. Yet as recent eve
 nts have demonstrated\, America’s partners in the Middle East are hedgin
 g despite the Biden administration’s extensive support for their defense
 : they hope to strengthen their relationships with Moscow and Beijing whil
 e continuing to reap the benefits of Washington’s largesse. In the seven
  years since the Saudi-led coalition launched their war on Yemen\, the U.S
 . has been complicit in selling weapons and providing assistance without w
 hich the Saudis could not conduct their military operations. Join The Inte
 rcept’s Jeremy Scahill\, Yemen Relief and Reconstruction founder Aisha J
 umaan\, and The Cato Institute’s Justin Logan as they discuss a new brie
 f from the Quincy Institute’s Annelle Sheline\, using data to highlight 
 the U.S. role in supporting the war on Yemen and show parallels between Pu
 tin's military assault on Ukraine and Mohammed bin Salman's seven-year eff
 ort to destroy Yemen. Moderated by Quincy’s Executive Vice President Tri
 ta Parsi.
